Product Introduction

Bioactivity
Description
Argatroban is a specific thrombin inhibitor and a non-heparin anticoagulant that effectively prevents thrombus formation and is commonly used to establish thrombolysis models.
Targets&IC50
Thrombin:5-39 nM(Ki)
In vitro
In a rat distal cerebral artery occlusion model, administration of Argatroban at a dose of 0.3 mg/hour significantly reduced the number of microthrombi following artery occlusion. Argatroban treatment (at 0.1 and 0.3 mg/hour) notably reversed the decline in local cerebral blood flow in rats with distal cerebral artery occlusion.
In vivo
Argatroban directly induces phenotypic transformation in vascular smooth muscle cells, upregulating the expression of myofilament-related proteins, PAI-1, and β-actin mRNA. In animal models with thrombosis rich in platelets and erythrocytes, Argatroban (ED50=125 μg/kg) demonstrates antithrombotic effects. It exhibits antithrombin activity across a range (Ki=5 nM-39 nM).
Disease Modeling Protocol
Thrombolysis Model
  • Modeling Mechanism:

    Argatroban, as a direct thrombin inhibitor, inhibits thrombin-mediated fibrinogenesis, platelet aggregation, and coagulation factor activation by reversibly binding to the thrombin active site. It can also penetrate the thrombus to inhibit thrombin-binding thrombin activity, preventing thrombus reformation. When synergistically used with t-PA, it reduces intermittent reocclusion during t-PA thrombolysis, accelerates thrombus dissolution, and does not interfere with the fibrinolytic system.

  • Modeling Method:

    Experimental Subject:

    Hamster, Golden hamster, Male, Body weight 120–130 g

    Dosage and Administration Route:

    ① Thrombosis induction:
    - Anaesthesia: Sodium pentobarbital (100 mg/kg) administered intraperitoneally for induction, tracheotomy performed for ventilation maintenance. Right subclavian artery cannulated (PE10 catheter) to the common carotid artery opening; right femoral vein cannulated for drug administration;
    - Thrombosis induction: Sodium fluorescein (50 mg/kg) injected into the right subclavian artery. Five minutes later, a small vein (diameter 50–70 μm) was selected and locally irradiated with filtered light (diameter 100 μm, intensity 20 mW/mm², wavelength 400–500 nm) until thrombosis caused 99% luminal stenosis(approximately 7 minutes);
    ② Thrombolytic intervention:
    - Fifteen minutes after thrombus formation, initiate continuous infusion of t-PA (72×10⁴ IU/kg/h) into the right subclavian artery, concurrently with continuous infusion of argatroban (0.05–0.3 mg/kg/h) via the femoral vein for 4 hours;
    - Control treatment:
    - Blank control: Normal saline infusion via femoral vein;
    - UFH control: UFH (12.5 anti-Xa U/kg/h) administered via femoral vein infusion, with all other aspects identical to the intervention group.

    Dosing Frequency and Duration Model:

    Single dose

  • Validation:

    1. Thrombolysis indicators: - Vascular stenosis rate: One hour after thrombolysis, the vascular stenosis rate in the argatroban (0.1 mg/kg/h) group decreased to 59.6±4.0% (93.2±2.5% in the control group, p<0.01), and further decreased after 4 hours, showing a dose-dependent effect; - Thrombus area percentage: One hour after thrombolysis, the thrombus area percentage in the argatroban (0.3 mg/kg/h) group was only 37.9±16.9% (79.4±9.5% in the UFH group, p<0.01); 2. Coagulation function indicators: - Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT): The aPTT in the argatroban (0.3 mg/kg/h) group was prolonged to 34.6±2.1 s (28.8±0.4 s in the control group, p<0.01), without excessive prolongation (<180 s); Bleeding time (BT): The BT was not significantly prolonged in the argatroban (0.1-0.2 mg/kg/h) group (216-228 s vs. 204±6 s in the control group), while the BT was prolonged to 265±9 s in the 0.3 mg/kg/h group (p<0.01), but no serious bleeding complications occurred; 3. Re-occlusion: The incidence of intermittent re-occlusion within 1 hour of thrombolysis in the argatroban group was significantly lower than that in the t-PA alone group and the UFH group.
